Unfortunately, the Cossie had had to go home by the time I got this shot

I didn't think it was you but couldn't see through the screen well enough.

In order to get the middle shot, the camera is mounted on a combination of suckers, clamps and bars and stuff then fired remotely from inside the car.

Is that up North Wales? Certainly looks familiar. I know Evo car mag do a lot of shoots up near Llyn Brenig (Lake Brenig for you foreigner's :D ) as it's only 10 minutes away from me.

Well spotted Greeny. Full marks. It is just off the evo triangle on the Llyn Brenig leg.

The group shot was over nearer to Bala though.

Cheers for the comments guys. :D
